Abstract

The paper reviews important water‐related effects of climate change and assesses their impacts on developing countries and, in particular, on developing country agriculture. It assesses the relative importance of change‐driven water supply and water demand effects on agriculture and examines the concepts of vulnerability, adaptation, and adaptive capacity. It suggests some measures available to developing countries to begin the process of adaptation to the impacts of climate change and outlines a possible role for external development cooperation in that process.
